Precarious Life: Disability Aesthetics in the Art of Jean-Michel Basquiat
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988) est salué dans le monde entier pour ses peintures viscérales, ses hommages aux figures de la culture noire et son utilisation de matériaux récupérés. Si la toxicomanie de Basquiat et sa mort prématurée font l’objet de nombreuses spéculations, la précarité dans la forme et le contenu de ses oeuvres a reçu moins d’attention. J’avance qu’un examen critique de cette précarité révèle les préoccupations constantes de Basquiat aux intersections de la race, de la classe sociale et du handicap. Comme l’ont souligné Christopher M. Bell et Jasbir K. Puar, les études sur le handicap n’abordent souvent pas de manière adéquate les questions de race et de classe, bien que les inégalités structurelles influencent profondément le développement du handicap. En apportant des nuances à l’esthétique du handicap théorisée par Tobin Siebers avec les études noires et les écrits de Puar sur la débilité, j’avance que l’oeuvre de Basquiat conteste les effets débilitants de l’antinégritude, du classisme et du colonialisme, tout en incarnant une vitalité résistante.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
